“I know that throughout my life moments have come and presented themselves to Erik and I..that we have thought over and over how in the world are we ever gonna get out of this mess..Amen..considering that sometimes in life everything falls apart at once..maybe you as well have been there or maybe your there now..Amen..but what I do know is that God is our promise keeper..Amen..that He is faithful and that He is always on time every time for us and our lives..Amen..so what I have learned and I still do daily is this..I do take it one day at a time..because I have learned that if I don’t I get overwhelmed..Amen..because we have a lot on our plates so to speak..and so we both have learned to trust the Lord and to do this daily..Amen..to really live for the moment that we are in at the present time..Amen..because the enemy will come in like a flood at times..and he will show you everything..Amen..everything that needs to take place..everything that needs to happen..everything that is due..everything that is broken..everything..because that is his job..Amen..because he wants you to be discouraged and destroyed..Amen..but as I say we have learned that when the enemy comes in like a flood God our Father raises up a standard..Isaiah 59:19..Amen..because Oh my goodness how He loves us..and takes care of us..Praise the Lord!”

“So as well as I say if you are there..then what we do..is we look to this day..and we do what we can do this day..don’t look ahead to discouragement..because that is where you will begin to lose hope..when we try in ourselves to figure things out..we honestly can’t..Amen..because none of it will make sense..Amen..but as I say God gives us daily..our needs..and meets our day with goodness..and loads us up daily..as the word says with His benefits..His goodness..His mercy..His grace..His provision..His everything..Psalm 68:19-35..Amen..so when you serve Christ..life happens and will happen..but you must live in the day..don’t look behind you..don’t look ahead..but you live right now..Amen..and do what you can with what you have been given..at times we have felt like the children of Israel..how they were following God..and He feed them daily..but He told them don’t store up anything for tomorrow I will meet you there tomorrow..Exodus 16:19..Amen..I am paraphrasing..but in other words He wanted them just like He wants us to trust in Him daily..Amen..for us to not trust in anything but Him..Amen..so today I pray that you are thankful for what is there in your life..and that you thank the Lord for it all..Amen..thank Him for His love towards you and for all of His blessings that He gives..for He does see us through our days..He is incredible..so again don’t forget just whom it is that you serve..Amen..for we serve Jesus Christ our Lord..who again I always love to say can do anything..anywhere..and anytime that He alone chooses for He is Lord and He is Lord over all..and over it all..Ephesians 4:6..Praise His name..so have a blessed and most beautiful day..living in your nows of life..not tomorrow..not yesterday but right now in your life..Amen..for it is in His name, Jesus’ name, that I do ask and pray..Amen and Amen..Be blessed today my dear sweet friends and remember wherever you go and whatever you do, Be a light for our Father, Much love to you all, Mandi ❤
